Dick Whittington opens on Friday 13th May and runs until Sunday 22nd May, with matinee performances on both Saturdays and Sundays.
One of our lovely Mumbler families popped along last night to enjoy the show. Here is what they thought…
“Lovely evening at The Kirk Theatre at Pickering watching Dick Whittington. We have never been there before, what a lovely place it is.
We were sat in the centre so perfect view of the stage.
Couple of little hiccups that added to the hilarity – a great Pantomime that had us all laughing and involved with the good, the bad and the funny!
The dancers were Elenas favourite so a big well done to them.
All round a really good evening thank you.”
The pantomime is written by past Society Life Member Ron Hall and is being directed by Luke Arnold. Luke has directed and produced many of the Society’s musicals over the past decade, and this will be his sixth pantomime. Asked about the timing of the production, Luke said “It’s been a difficult time for the theatre and Pickering Musical Society, and I am just so pleased we are able to reopen with a pantomime, as whatever the time of year, I know we all love to laugh and be entertained. Also returning will be the wonderful dancers from Sarah-Louise Ashworth’s School of Dance. Please do come along and show your support to the Society, our local performers and our wonderful theatre.”
